Chewy Rocky Road Cookie Recipe

This delicious Chewy Rocky Road Cookie Recipe is flourless. It is so chewy and it makes a great homemade gift to any chocolate lover! I have adapted this recipe from the website http://www.fifteenspatulas.com/ooey-gooey-rocky-road-cookies/

INGREDIENTS:

3 cups of powdered sugar

2/3 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 teaspoon of salt

3 extra large egg whites

1 tablespoon of vanilla extract

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

3 oz. of chopped walnuts

1 cup of mini marshmallows

Parchment paper

HOW TO MAKE IT:

Preheat your oven to 350 F.

In the Kitchenaid mixer bowl add powdered sugar and cocoa powder and mix it on low speed with the beater attachment on. Add the egg whites and vanilla extract just until combined. You might need to add water, about 1 tablespoon if you live in a drier place. It needs to have a thick cake batter texture. Once the texture is achieved, add chocolate chips and walnuts and give it a quick mix.

With the help of an ice cream scoop or a spoon, scoop the cookie dough over the parchment paper on a cookie sheet. Make sure you leave room in between.

Put 4 or 5 mini marshmallows over each cookie, and let them cool off in the freezer for about 5-8 minutes. This will help the cookie to maintain its shape.

Bake the cookies in the oven for about 12-15 minutes, till marshmallow is golden brown. I actually baked it a little longer because I like my cookie a little harder.
